Discovering Scotlands Middle with Big Al.

The tour company was Discover Scotland tours . “Big Al” the tour guide was excellent with a knowledgeable and interesting commentary. He kept us informed and entertained, even when there was a traffic jam that added an extra hour on our trip. The Loch Ness cruise was an extra expense, but worth it. There were frequent, well-planned toilet stops and photo opportunity stops. The bus was very comfortable with good lumber support seats.

Lochness experience from Glasgow

It’s a long day but well worth the beautiful country side views!! Tony our tour guide was great!! Filling us with a lot of information along the ride! He also threw in a few extra stops because our tour group was very small!! Which was great for us!! He did a wonderful job narrating and navigating along the route!! He also included pictures and music!!! A great day!! I would recommend this excursion!!

Fun in the Highlands

We had such a wonderful time with our guide Harry! He was friendly, knowledgeable and funny. It was great to learn about Scotland while visiting the lovely Lochs and Highlands. Harry gave us plenty of time to visit all the major stops. He gave us lots of photos stops and always offered to take our photo as well as suggest the best place to take the photos. Harry was a delight and I will definitely recommend this tour again. From the Highlands to the Lochs. From Nessy to Hairy Coos a good time was had by all. Also Harry music selection was fire!!!
